cabcover

cabcover is designed to meet taxi and minicab drivers' needs for accident assistance at the roadside and in providing accident-related legal support thereafter until all options available to you for compensation for your damage, losses and any injuries have been fully explored. 

Whether you are a self employed single operator or run a fleet, cabcover provides all the benefits of lawcover so you will get:

  • telephone roadside assistance including 24/7 legal advice and support right at the accident scene and a free one-point-to-call telephone message relay service for your drivers to cancel upcoming business appointments and let you know they are safe
  • a free insurance status check from the roadside on whether the other drivers involved in the accident are insured (subject to conditions)
  • up to £25,000.00 legal expenses cover for each driver and every passenger with full legal advice from the outset tapping in on the expertise of one of our specialist motoring solicitors
  • plated vehicle hire (where appropriate), recovery services and up to £200.00 worth of private rehabilitation-treatment support in non-fault cases.
  • all membership grades provide cover for Great Britain and Northern Ireland

In addition you will receive full legal advice upon:

  • loss of earnings for injured drivers
  • loss of hire (where appropriate) if you are a taxi fleet operator

taxicabcover is ideal for either taxi and cab owners where typically the claim in most cases is limited to recovery of the policy excess and hire of an equivalent plated vehicle where required or drivers who are unable to work because of a personal injury claim or because of the loss of their vehicle. 

In such cases hire of a plated vehicle from a recognised and respectable hire company is essential and cabcover's fleet support team is on hand to assist in choosing the right company at rates which are unlikely to cause problems with the negligent driver's insurers.

Taxi and minicab drivers have different needs than the private motorist.  If you are unable to work because of personal injury a loss of profit claim may be appropriate and your £25,000 legal costs cover should prove adequate to cover this.

Our solicitors and fleet managers are always willing to telephone you so that they can understand the particular needs of your business as well as suggesting ways in which you can minimise your losses as soon as, or even before cabcover is put in place.

Expert motoring representation right from the start...

After an accident you need an expert motoring lawyer to represent your interests: cabcover secures you an expert, specialist motoring solicitor from day one...

Our solicitors are not like your local company solicitor practice who might mainly undertake contract work with some occasional motoring cases done on the side. All our solicitors are motor accident specialists with vast experience of motoring law and have in-depth experience of all kinds of simple and complex motor accident claims involving all kinds of vehicles, fleets and severity of injury and damage.

Their job is to recover your out-of-pocket expenses as soon as possible and to ensure that your drivers get the right medical treatment wherever possible if they are injured.

If court proceedings are necessary, so long as reasonable prospects for success exist, these can be filed on your behalf and all your legal fees will be covered.
